M&B Introductions Limited PRIVACY STATEMENT
M&B
Introductions Ltd. (M&B) provides private and secure
information management services.
Private
means that you are assured that M&B will not share
with, nor sell your personal information to, anyone
or any organization except as required under this policy.
Period. No personal information is collected about you
unless you voluntarily supply it to us for your profile.
All personal information provided to us is subject to
the protections of the provincial Privacy Act of British
Columbia. At the time of receiving any personal information
from you, you will be advised that such information
is personal and will be received for the limited use
and conditions of this policy and the M&B services,
and you will be asked for your consent in that regard
at that time. Our main web server does not use cookies
or other session management methods to collect personal
data about visitors or use. Technology dictates that
the server is aware of a visitors ISP (internet
service provider), but this gives us no information
about the individual user. If support servers are required
which use session cookies, you will be notified in advance.
Secure
means that M&B seeks the most current and best practices
to implement information acquisition, access and storage,
which preserve the confidentiality and integrity of
your information. M&B uses a four-component approach
to information security:
| |
1.
Confidentiality: through encryption of electronic
data, secured fireproof hardcopy file storage, and
employee and computer-service consultant integrity
warrantees. |
| |
|
| |
2.
Authenticity of Use: through three-way digital
signatures for access, such as requiring
your name, an alphabetical keyword and a six-digit
PIN, to verify the identity of users who access
the controlled services.
|
| |
|
| |
3.
Integrity of Data: through anti-virus software
and precautions to prevent unauthorized changes,
to maintain the accuracy of data in the system,
and a controlled process for changing data.
|
| |
|
| |
4.
Access Control: through digital signatures and
SSL encryption, we intend to take reasonable steps
to protect the data from unauthorized access and
disclosures.
|
| |
|
We
maintain information and privacy policies and technologies
to safe-guard client information and communications
from unauthorized intrusions. An important security
measure is our use of 128-bit secure sockets layer (SSL)
encryption, which is the standard typically used by
banks and governments.
We
seek current and new precautions to help ensure the
confidentiality of the data exchanged over the M&B
service. If you have any concerns, comments or suggestions,
please contact us.
